What are the different types of voice recognition?
There are three main types of voice recognition: Directed Speech, Natural Speech and Mixed Initiative. Directed Speech is when a system asks a direct question and offers the user the specific answers it is expecting (e.g. “for highway information, say ‘traffic,’ for public transportation, say ‘transit,'” etc.). Natural Speech will listen to all elements of a person’s response and pick up the key phrases from within a natural sentence (e.g. “I’d like to hear about traffic conditions.”). In Mixed Initiative, the system will guide the user to the proper response, but will not give them the specific words to say. (“I can give you information on traffic, transit or airports. What would you like?” The user may then say “I’d like to hear about traffic conditions” and be properly recognized.
